‘You are a Motherfucker!’ – Dancer Kaffy Tells Davido
Kaffy Ameh is spitting fire on Instagram; the dance queen is done ignoring how dancers are disrespected by their counterparts in the music industry.
In her Instagram rant yesterday, the 36-year-old Magneto Dance Company CEO named Davido as one of the stars who continually disrespects dancers. According to Kaffy, Davido employed the services of her company but at the last minute, shoved them aside like they were nothing.
“It’s alright if artistes don’t need us. We are artistes ourselves. It is very disrespectful for you to look down at and trample on people who in one way or the other contribute to where u are today,” she began.
Adding, “This message is for those of you that disrespectfully disregard us dancers especially @davidoofficial. If u don’t want dancers express it way before U agree to allow them dance than when u about to climb the stage u decide u don’t need us again. Or tell dancers not to come near u while u perform .wtf. ”
Many times, we have reviewed concerts where our singers lipsync, and their performance are so lukewarm they need a hypeman to hum and bounce around the stage – valiant attempts at infusing life into shows that are generally cringe-worthy.
“Nowadays artistes take a piss. People pay a lot of money to see u come out and give a good show it requires more than u jumping all over the place with no content,” said Kaffy who choreographed dances for international stars including for award winning-singer, Ciara.

And many people agree with Kaffy.
Beyonce’s concerts are powerful because of her dancers, and she deeply respects and values them. Other singers who depend heavily on same skillful professionals to deliver exceptional performances include icons like Madonna, Britney Spears, and even Usher and Chris Brown.
At home we have the likes of D’banj, Flavour and Tiwa Savage mining the creative force of the dance industry to stun fans at their concerts.
But how long before the Nigerian creative industry fully acknowledges the force dancers wield?
